Dallas Has A Dirty Secret: It Acts As If Supports the Community Gardens Movement <\/font>
<\/font><\/a><\/font><\/u><\/strong>Source: www.dallasobserver.com<\/span> Dallas News – The Dallas Observer is the definitive source for Dallas news coverage, politics, and blogs.
<\/span><\/font>
<\/font><\/font>From the article:<\/font><\/strong> <\/strong><\/span>Howard Garrett is a Dallas-based national radio personality and author whose thinking on organic food production, once considered radical, is now being accepted by the mainstream (“The Dirt Doctor,” Dallas Observer, July 17, 2008). Methods very similar to what Garrett has preached for decades were recently adopted by Harvard University<\/font> for the management of its own grounds. Locally, Garrett has served as an unpaid consultant to several groups hoping to launch community gardens. He thinks affluent people need them just as much as people who can’t afford good food.
<\/font><\/font>
<\/font>“It’s a convenient place for people to go and have a little plot of land where they can grow some food crops\u2014space they don’t necessarily have at home. An apartment person doesn’t have space. A homeowner might not have enough sunshine.”<\/font><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
